I heard these are still available.

I'm just trying to check out all of my options and saw a pic of one and it was amazing!

Fucked if I know I dont even know what a supergoose is.......
ok. let me break it down for you :

shadow :
!arcade! made some consolized 4-slots and called them shadow4. ok, it was black, so 'shadow' was kind of fitting. woohoo ... it's dark and evil ...

2 :
!arcade! only made consolized 4-slots. they never officially sold one under the name 'shadow2'.

supergun :
there was a factory, which sold jamma setups, that were intended for home use and named them 'SuperGun'. different jamma games can be plugged into the jamma connector. does the 'shadow' system have such a jamma connector for hooking up other jamma pcbs? eh? NO!

to put it in short :
- your consolized 4-slot is a 'consolized 4-slot board' or a 'modded 4-slot board', but not a 'silver shadow4'. selling 'em under the name of a completely different system (keep in mind, that the original shadow4 has other connectors, an other color, a baseplate and an rgb encoder) is bullshit lie.
- a consolized board is not a supergun.

or ... do you guys call each and every dark brown soda 'diet coke'? spock

edit :

@ the roker :
please don't take it as an offense. just wanted to point it out, that there ARE differences and that a name doesn't make a system.

No offense taken.

I know now I can do this to a n00b when they ask the same question.

That's what vengence is all about.

I could just stare at this pretty picture all day. With the boards being exposed on the bottom, does this make it somewhat of a hazard for dust?

Thank you

Falk, you should post that text file somewhere, maybe a sticky in the Tech Support forum, so all the n00ba can read it and I hope this way they won't ask the same questions over and over again.

there's more to it.
i might try to make my own web site with pics and more info. reading those pms might still be confusing, if you are a total noob and don't know, where to start.
